Melvin Rees
Melvin Davis Rees (1933 – 1995) was an American serial killer who committed five murders in Virginia and Maryland between 1957 and 1959. He murdered and sexually assaulted Margaret Harold, the girlfriend of US Army soldier Sgt. Roy D. Hudson,〔Hutchinson News, June 26, 1960〕 during a highway encounter near Annapolis; two years later, he murdered the four members of the Jackson family near Fredericksburg, Virginia.〔 After his conviction for the killings, Rees confessed to two other murders, and authorities believed he was involved in two more.〔 Prior to his arrest and imprisonment, Rees was known as a jazz musician in the Washington, D.C. area. ==Early life==
Little is known about Rees' childhood and upbringing. During the early 1950s, Rees attended the University of Maryland in College Park, just outside of Washington, D.C. Classmates at UMD would later recall Rees being a talented musician, showing skill with the saxophone, piano, and clarinet.〔 Rees dropped out of UMD before he could graduate, ostensibly to pursue a musical career. He travelled around the D.C. area, playing at local jazz clubs.〔 In 1955, Rees was arrested on charges of assaulting an unidentified 36-year-old woman. Rees had tried to force her into his car, but she escaped. The victim, however, did not press charges, and the case against Rees was dropped. Rees' friends dismissed this early incident until after his killing spree began.〔
